Appears to fail WP:POLITICIAN as Sharma has never held an elected office and appears to only be the Vice President of a political party's youth group. A quick google search did not appear to turn anything up and a search of the youth group's WP article references only produced one passing mention stating that he was involved in some sort of a protest (but did not identify him by any position/rank).

  • Delete: A biography containing entirely unsourced material about what the subject said and thought. Vice-presidency of a party youth wing falls far short of any of the WP:POLITICIAN criteria and simple name listing as a participant in a party-organised protest is insufficient to meet WP:ANYBIO criteria.

  • Delete. People are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just for being on the executive of a political party's youth wing — that can occasionally be enough if the article is sourced well enough to pass WP:GNG, but this isn't. Bearcat ( talk) 06:05, 18 September 2017 (UTC) reply
